Abstract excerpt
Meningioma, a tumor of the meninges covering the central nervous system, shows frequent loss of material from human chromosome 22. Homozygous and heterozygous deletions in meningiomas defined a candidate region of >1 Mbp in 22q12.3-q13.1 and directed us to gene cloning in this segment. We characterized a new member of the N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase gene family, the LARGE gene. It occupies >664 kilobases and...
